MMS Yearbook
The IMP's Tales Yearbook staff appreciates all the photos that have already been submitted this year for the yearbook. We want to highlight all of the exciting things our students take pride in, not just the sports they may play. Does your child take art, chorus, theater, band, dance, or ukulele as one of his or her electives? Do they play an instrument outside of school or draw/paint/sculpt in their free time? We want to highlight those students who express themselves creatively!
What to submit: Pictures of your child playing an instrument, participating in art, dancing for class, acting for theater arts class, or singing.
IMPORTANT: Please make sure the pictures only include Mooresville Middle School students. If you take a picture of your student during class, please make sure their Google Meet is not in the background. Pictures should include only your student or their siblings if they are MMS students. If you have any questions please email Mr. Cline at michaelcline@mgsd.k12.nc.us
